Humanity has a history of ideologies that ignite conflicts. We also have a tendency of blaming some external source (a god, a book, an individual) Religions are some of these ideologies. Additionally, these religions have the tendency to be conserving. They stick to the lessens learned thousand of years ago. Times change and new lessens are learned. Humanity progresses beyond the old lessons. As long as conserving religions learn to dislike and even want to exterminate other religions, as long as they refuse to learn from human progress, as long the mutual conflicts will persist. This is why reacting or getting involved in these conflicts if they occur is useless. If groups of people refuse to participate in human progress and get involved in conflicts as a consequence, it is their own choice. And the consequences are their own problem. The Islam-Judaism and inter-Islam conflicts will persist as long as they don't share in the learnings of humanity but stay frozen in times by learn...

We often talk about 'the west' but there is more to it, I think. And this (more) has major implications on geopolitics. We should talk about the (autocratic) land people culture versus the (free) sea people culture. Is it the war for Ukraine and the potential war for Taiwan, or is there a deeper war going on? I think the latter. Let me explain. I see the world moving forward from a (land) nations dominated organization into a free space network organization. I can see a history of wars between freedom and serfdom. The most brutal ones have been the wars of the west and Japan against China. Think about the brutal Opium wars and the Second Sino Japanese War . And the permanent battle with sea powers surrounding it from the Russian Empire in all its forms of appearance (Communistic or not) till today. We live in a time when these wars culminate into global conflicts and new wars. Probably and hopefully the final wars. Beijing, Moscow, Vienna, and Paris have one thing in common, t...

The globalization of the past decades will have language consequences in the future. One of them will be the disappearance of the word tax. Its replacement (the modern equivalent) will be public service cost. I explain why: About the randomness of tax Where and what to pay tax for? People in a city environment (modern global society) need good public services and people are willing to pay for it. We (the free world people) require roads; public transport; an education network; a value exchange system (money); electronic communications (internet); air transport hubs (airports) and so on. All necessary for modern life. And all only possible if we work somehow together to maintain them. Three main categories of public services. If you analyze what main types of public services there are, they can be classified into three groups: security-services; network-services and care-services. Security services Security services are needed to prevent threats to have impact. And fight the impact of a...

How do you contact a person with your mobile phone? FaceTime? Signal? WhatsApp? Call? Is it not about time to rephrase Phone Number into Contact Number?

The obsolete model What Wikipedia says about it. On this type of political spectrum , left-wing politics and right-wing politics are often presented as opposed, although a particular individual or group may take a left-wing stance on one matter and a right-wing stance on another; and some stances may overlap and be considered either left-wing or right-wing depending on the ideology. In France, where the terms originated, the left has been called "the party of movement" or liberal , and the right "the party of order" or conservative . The three class view If we look to the history of politics, we can clearly recognize another aspect of dominant division that is actual more critical to type political movements, namely nation central dominance (controlled) versus "Laissez Faire" ( let it be) . Communists and (National) Socialists are clear historic examples of controlled politics. And nowadays, all technocrat politics have a tendency to soft or hard cro...

How do we save NATO from the coming Wall-Street collapse? One of the issues with security is that it comes at a price. How do we ensure that the price continues to be paid even if the monetary (US$) system collapse. This is one of the main questions I'm working on these days. Why do I believe Wall-Street will collapse? Until now, all monetary systems are based on a balance in tax-flow versus debt-flow over time. That means that governments play a key role in the monetary system. In a global economy, it is the dominant government playing a key role. It has the anchor currency benefit. Because of its geographic, the USA is, and will remain to be, the dominant government. But in a more wealthy world, it is becoming relatively smaller and thus less dominant. Thus losing its anchor function. The world can rely on the USA navy to protect shipping routs because of its current status. But can this key feature of protecting free trade be maintained by a tax/debt balance of one (relatively s...

The new economy will be based on indirect and direct nuclear energy for two reasons: Environment and availability. Environment because of the CO2 emissions and plastic waste. Availability because we already burned most of the easy accessible petroleum and extracting new resources it is getting more difficult and less economical. Direct nuclear energy is harvested from nuclear fission or fusion . Indirect nuclear energy is solar, wind or geothermal energy . Nuclear energy (direct and indirect) is available in abundance, once we have the technology to harvest it. I believe by 2030 humanity will be converting old coal burning electricity plants into geothermal (by means of plasma deep drilling )or thorium molten salt nuclear plants. And be off grid for light and data by means of solar and batteries. This scenario will change the global economy in a real global economy. The geopolitical component related to petroleum will disappear. Power literary will be more equal distributed over the ...
